  2. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

    For assembly robots, [24] Brushless technology may be used to build linear motors. [25] The advantage of linear motors is that they can produce linear motion without the need of a transmission system, such as ballscrews, leadscrew, rack-and-pinion, cam, gears or belts, that would be necessary for rotary motors. Transmission systems are known to ...

  3. Tesla coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil

    Tesla circuits can also be classified by how many resonant coils they contain: [24] [25] Two coil or double-resonant circuits: Virtually all present Tesla coils use the two coil resonant transformer , consisting of a primary winding to which current pulses are applied, and a secondary winding that produces the high voltage, invented by Tesla in ...

  4. Vector control (motor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_control_(motor)

    In vector control, an AC induction or synchronous motor is controlled under all operating conditions like a separately excited DC motor. [21] That is, the AC motor behaves like a DC motor in which the field flux linkage and armature flux linkage created by the respective field and armature (or torque component) currents are orthogonally aligned such that, when torque is controlled, the field ...

  5. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.

  6. DC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_motor

    A compound DC motor connects the armature and fields windings in a shunt and a series combination to give it characteristics of both a shunt and a series DC motor. [5] This motor is used when both a high starting torque and good speed regulation is needed. The motor can be connected in two arrangements: cumulatively or differentially.

  7. Induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

    An induction motor or asynchronous motor is an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor that produces torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding. [1] An induction motor therefore needs no electrical connections to the rotor.

  8. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The motor size constant and motor velocity constant (, alternatively called the back EMF constant) are values used to describe characteristics of electrical motors. Motor constant [ edit ]

  9. Van de Graaff generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_de_Graaff_generator

    Van de Graaff generator diagram. A simple Van de Graaff generator consists of a belt of rubber (or a similar flexible dielectric material) moving over two rollers of differing material, one of which is surrounded by a hollow metal sphere. A comb-shaped metal electrode with sharp points (2 and 7 in the diagram), is positioned near each roller ...
